Return of the Jedi

Work Text:

Emperor most displeased with your progress
You can tell him when he arrives
Exalted one, Master sent us to impress
Before he comes to save the lives
Of those that you have taken.
Dancing Oola now forsaken
As into the Rancor pit she is thrown.

Han saved by someone who loves him
Even as he is sick from hibernation
In comes the Jedi with new metal limb
To try engage Hutt in negotiation.
Terminated effective immediately
Thousand years suffering absolute
As Huttslayer she shall now be known.

The Death Star shall be completed.
Luke returns to Dagobah system
To say goodbye to one life depleted.
Knowledge of the sister that kissed him
Suffer your father’s fate you will
If destiny you underestimate still.
Look how Anakin’s boy has grown.

I only spoke a certain point of view
I had hoped it would be enough
Now the truth is out, long overdue
I am sorry that it was so tough.
Now your family together bring
Anakin and his offspring,
One last time you will meet.

Take the Falcon for her you’ll need
You better not give her a scratch
This is the final, the last good deed,
Hoping for one last match.
On Endor, a forest moon
The end is coming, drawing soon
Then one will have defeat.

Find out if the cost was worth the price paid
Through jungle in ponchos trek
The princess shall be waylaid
By Ewoks running through the wreck.
Leia finds friendship in little Wicket.
Main course at honour banquet
Impersonate deity so they won’t eat.

With sound effects tell the story,
As in the station above they plot.
Tell of the heroes in all their glory
The glorious reward they have got
Is the family right by their side.
To his sister and friend say goodbye,
The Force in my family is strong.

Reunited again father and son,
I accept only that you were once that man.
I accept nothing that you have done,
And join you I never can.
It’s a trap! In come the Rebel Alliance,
Still Luke shall stand in defiance
Heroics now would be wrong.

Won’t fight the father, see the good
Yet you are unwise to lower your defence
Anakin now stand where Vader stood
As son begs for life come to sense.
The story now has run its course,
Anakin’s redemption, balance to the Force
Like the prophecy all along.
